Learn to Create Amazing Appointment Scheduling Sites for Any Industry

Any regular person looking to buy a product or avail a service today turns to the internet as the first source of information.

In today's digital world, all the top firms in any industry will contribute much of their recent success and growth to their presence on the internet.

When customers find you along with several other businesses in your industry, they are very likely to compare you to them to know who is the best.

This is why you need a fantastic web presence that includes an appointment scheduling site.

This will help you get in front of your competition and become the primary choice of the prospective customer. Also, an appointment scheduling site can become the time saver for your organization for managing appointments with low cost and effort.



In this guide, we are going to show exactly how to do so without having to spend much time behind it.


Do you really need an attractive appointment scheduling site for your company?

You will know in every sector that having an excellent online presence would boost your place in your market among your competitors.

In fact, this would also be put in a strong spot such that potential clients tend to take advantage of the services or goods rather than others.

This is because most consumers do not compromise on the price when it comes to choosing a service or product. As for the new customers, how do they know you are just as good as what you say online?

One measure you can use is to have good feedback, but for new companies that do not have enough reviews online, this is hard to come by.

The other way is to have a very well-built online presence that should impress the user such that he or she feels your service may be as good as you claim. The better you do this, the more you gain in terms of trust from your potential patient.

An attractive appointment scheduler is an integral part of that. It helps you deliver the message of high quality to your customer with minimal effort and cost from your side.

In today’s world where there is a great deal of competition, you need to stay at the top of your game to ensure that you make the most out of your business. In order to achieve this, you need to ensure that you have the right scheduling page for your service as well.


Certain rules and guidelines need to be followed while doing this. But why?

For this guide, our goal is to build the best scheduling page you can make for yourself. To do that, you need to follow a couple of guidelines so that your scheduling page does a lot more than just reflect your industry.

Every industry has some visual features that are essential to showing the industry 's feeling when it comes to design.

For starters, on their websites, wedding planners prefer to use colors such as purple, baby blue, custard yellow and oregano green, as you are much more likely to see these colors on a wedding setting. This helps them carry a feeling-like marriage to someone who is viewing their website.

In most cases, the customers are likely to opt for such a service rather than another, because they are far more likely to trust the former's service from what they have seen online.

It is therefore important that you follow such guidelines which are widely used in your industry to ensure that your online presence can help you remain above your competition.

Be it Salesperson, SaaS Companies, Co-working Spaces or anything else for that matter, having an attractive and good-looking appointment scheduling website can only work wonders for your business.

This guide gives an overview of what you need to know when designing your scheduling appointment page in your industry. If you need directions covering every step of the process, we have a guide made for that very purpose.


All right, so, how should you go about making an appointment scheduling site?



Furthermore, your scheduling page should have a very appealing and intuitive user interface which is not too much to confuse your customers with.

When you manage to do this correctly then that will help you grab the customer's attention and hold him on the website for much longer times they usually do.

Your website will also have all the customer wants to know about before they schedule a business appointment.
You can make a perfect scheduling page with the right combination of color, backdrop and text that you can use to highlight your business. This will help you gain customer confidence which, in turn, will benefit your business.


The best place to start is your background image.

When your customer is on your scheduling page, your background picture sets the tone for your establishment. Therefore, one of the most critical aspects of your website to which you need to pay attention is also.

Now let us think how your page's picture will look like. If you look at any website that is usually in your field, you can see that it represents the colors and designs that are often used in that industry. This is vital as they just form the website to help bring the customer into the ambiance of your industry.

What are the colors you see in places like these most of the time?

According to industry, the colors vary. There will be a certain selection of colors for each which will mostly apply to that industry.

From these you can select the color scheme you would like to use for your page. It refers both to your background picture and to other elements on your scheduling list.

Once you have the colors in mind, we would suggest you pick a picture from your appointment schedule site for your background image that incorporates these colors. It would be safer if the establishment and employees are shown these photos.

Keep in mind that on top of your background image there will be other components, so try to select one that does not have too much going on in the picture. The best pick for your background is always a simple and beautiful picture, as it will complement and match everything else on your scheduling page.

If you have just started your business or you can not really find good pictures, do not worry. There are several websites from which you can either buy an picture or download one for free, describing the process in depth on the guide listed at the beginning of this one.

While solid colors are also an option for the background, we would highly recommend against this as it will look very badly put together and will not show the effort and quality through the scheduling site that you have in your services.

If you want to go with an image, one more thing you need to keep in mind is that you need to choose an image that does not have a lot of subjects along the border.

That is because your establishment's logo and name should appear on your scheduling page's top left corner, which might not be noticeable if there is a lot going on in that section of the background picture behind it.
If you are having trouble getting the color scheme of your choice, look at some websites of popular healthcare centers to get some inspiration.


What about the other things on your site, then?

The color scheme you selected earlier when selecting your background picture will be the one you will be using on other areas of your scheduling page for appointments.

We do this so that your background image and the elements on your scheduling page together appear as a part of a single language of design. It also gives an appealing and full look to your scheduling website.

As for many of the colors to apply for the components, we would suggest you go well against those that overpower the background image with a hue. This helps to make the elements from the background image easily visible. You should choose the color from the ones you had in mind earlier.

In the case of the text, to add uniformity to the screen, it is best to go for the same color you would apply for the press. When something in the background interferes with this, then depending on the situation, you can always go for black or white. With this, use a trial and error approach and select the color that makes the user read the text very quickly.

We recommend that you test the live preview of your page with the changes enforced by clicking the Go To button at the very bottom of the Workspace Settings page for each edit you do on your page.

In a nutshell, your scheduling page should have a simple and beautiful background, a good color on your buttons with the right text color on top of it. This will give a very nice feeling to your customers that will work to your advantage.


The text on your site is probably the most powerful part.

There are two lines above the buttons on your scheduling tab, where you can send any text you want.

There are two ways to use these text fields: either you can use this component to advertise your establishment using those phrases to do so, or you can use it to provide users with everything they need to learn about before making a clinic appointment.

This choice is yours to make but make sure you are making effective use of that space. If you feel that the space provided for text is not enough for you, you can always edit the space between the buttons and the page footer to write down what you need. Just ensure that the text on the image is legible enough to be read easily by the customer if you choose to do so.


Is that everything that you need to do? Not quite!

Once you have created the scheduling page for the appointment, we strongly recommend that you show others your page and ask for their feedback.

While other people's opinions help point out things you may have missed out on in the process, they also sometimes offer suggestions about your work that may help improve your page.

Make sure you get different opinions from people you trust, such as colleagues, friends and relatives, and implement those adjustments you think would enhance the scheduling page.

You can also start asking input from your customers about the same from which you can take in suggestions that can be used to further improve your scheduling page.

We hope that this guide will help you! If you have any questions regarding this guide, let us know in the comments below.
